Mark Vesterskov Report post #1 Posted February 19, 2012 Inspired by the "View from the office" thread, i am pretty curious as to what bags people haul around, and what gear is in it. So, this threads purpose is pretty simple. Show me your bag, give a little description of what it contains, and what type of gigs you normally do. My "bag": The thing is, i have no bag yet. No cart either. So what you see, is what i have, the rest is rented for every gig. Gear list: Sound Devices 442 Sennheiser G3 kit Røde Lavalier Røde NTG-3 AKG K-271 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

resonate Report post #3 Posted February 19, 2012 You could add total weight as well so we can compare :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wandering Ear Report post #4 Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, are those stock Lectrosonics antennas, or aftermarket? The stock antennas I have are color coordinated according to block, I'm curious how you color coordinated your antennas? My average bag is 3 Lectro 411/sm cost-11 combos and a 552, I'm swapping the 552 for a nomad 8 next week. Accompanied by a schoeps cmc6 and a mkh-416 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jack Norflus Report post #7 Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, are those stock Lectrosonics antennas, or aftermarket? The stock antennas I have are color coordinated according to block, I'm curious how you color coordinated your antennas? Those are Remote Audio antennas. The colors of the units has nothing to do with Lectro's block colors - I just color code everthing for my ease to identify transmiter / receiver / and mixer input.

Philip Perkins Report post #9 Posted February 19, 2012 When you buy a Remote Audio antenna you cut it to length yourself and they give you the full kit of colored tips and bands. You can follow Lectro's color scheme for color/block, or you can get creative with your own scheme. phil p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack Norflus Report post #10 Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, what is your Peter Engh power distro unit like? Pic? Its an Hirose 4 pin input with hard wired outputs to feed the 4 receivers, Nomad and the TRX. A basic switch and fuse - nothing fancy. I will post a photo later.

You don't mind the antennae poking in your wrist while mixing? probably not otherwise you would have configured your bag differently.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

justanross Report post #16 Posted February 20, 2012 You don't mind the antennae poking in your wrist while mixing? probably not otherwise you would have configured your bag differently.. I've never really noticed it. When I first got the bag I wasn't sure how much I'd like having the mixer away from my body. I now am just use to it. And yes my bag is full. I sit as much as I can.

RadoStefanov Report post #17 Posted February 20, 2012 I might have to go your way. Nomad on front. It has less RF garbage spray from the back. The antennas would not be a problem because i am building an antenna distribution system. I've never really noticed it.
